TRYOUT EVALUATIONS
HOW WILL TRYOUTS WORK THIS YEAR?
This year in an effort to have the best players playing together on the strongest teams both clubs will work to place players together based on their skills and position on the day of tryouts.
Players will be evaluated by coaches from both clubs during their session. Players should be sure to place their primary position as well as a second position to be evaluated on during tryouts. For example if a player primarily is a setter however has experience as a libero they should place that down also.
Players may tryout for age groups above their own however are REQUIRED to attend their age group tryout as well, no exceptions will be made.
Coaches with both clubs will evaluate and develop rosters for offers which will be submitted to the Next Revolution and Roanoke United Board of Directors for review and acceptance prior to ANY offers being extended. OPEN TEAM offers will be made AT TRYOUTS at the end of each tryout session (more information on how this will take place in the coming weeks). ONLY TOP OPEN TEAMS WILL LEAVE WITH AN OFFER IMMEDIATELY FROM TRYOUTS.
Players will receive ONE offer and only one offer between the two clubs. Players will NOT have the ability to negotiate and ask to play for "the other club" as the teams will be made by placing the best players together each weekend. Players may certainly decline any offer given but they will not be able to decline in order to play for a different club as their sole basis.
Special consideration will be made in the event of siblings who would like to play in the same club however not necessarily the same team.
